[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 192351, member: 2005"] How deep is the scrap? I don't have experience with dogs but I had 2 kids with eye injuries...1 had a piece of plywood drop as he rode a bigwheel by it and it scratched his cornea (he wasn't even a difficult child) We called his pediatrician and was told to just put eye ointment (we had on hand), he was fine but we were dumb and I don't think the doctor realized we were talking about inside his eye!! The next eye injury was a fine piece of metal flew into my ds's eye when he was banging on a cinderblock. It weeped. We took him to the pediatrician (different one). She sent us to an eye doctor the next day although she didn't see anything obvious. The eye doctor sent us directly to Wills Eye hospital for emergency surgery, said if it had gone any further it would have cost him the eye. The main worry after the surgery was infection. We had daily doctor visits and lots of eye drops, scary time. He was only bandaged for a day or two if I remember right...it was 11 years ago. Hope everything stays clean and heals quickly. Sometimes animals heal much quicker then people. [/QUOTE]
